In April of 2015, the California State Library and Fresno State convened a meeting of major map collections in the state to discuss map and aerial photography collections overlap, digitization efforts, discovery tool development, rights management, online hosting, and digital preservation efforts occurring at public and academic libraries and state agencies. Our speakers summarize survey data of major map collections in the state, discuss the impetus for changing the way maps are found, preview different map discovery systems, highlight important tools, look at new directions for map collections, state library funding of map visualization, and share projects in California.
